WAVE ENERGY PLANT Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC F03B13/18 

FIELD: power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: wave energy plant comprises a linear electric generator 3, including a stator 12 and a generating core 13, capable of vertical reciprocal movement inside the stator 12, a hollow float 4, a stem 5, which kinematically connects the core 13 with the float 4, vertical guide beams 6 with support rollers 14 moving in them, dampers 15. The plant is equipped with a vertical stand 1, which is fixed, for instance, in soil of a water reservoir 2, and a casing 7 fixed in it and made as a hollow box from non-metal material with central holes 10 and 11 on an arch 8 and a bottom 9, inside of which there is a stator 12 and a core 13. Beams 6 are rigidly fixed on the arch 8 and the bottom 9 of the body 7. Rollers 14 are attached to the side surface of the core 13. The float 4, comprising a bottom, a nose part, an arch 18 and a valve 26, is connected to the stem 5 via a hinged device 16, which is rigidly connected to the arch 18 of the float 4.

EFFECT: increased efficiency, higher reliability of operation, increased resource of operation with design simplification.
